Grading:  Grades will be based mainly upon two midterm exams, a comprehensive final exam, multiple homework assignments, lab assignments and multiple quizzes.  A plus and minus grading scale will be used to assign final grades.  The final grade weighting of student work is estimated in the table below.

Exams and Quizzes: There will be two midterm exams and a comprehensive final, all will be in class, closed book. There will be at least one quiz most weeks, quiz dates may or may not be announced in advance. If you know in advance that you might miss a quiz or exam, you must discuss this with me well in advance.  No make-up quizzes or exams will be given unless you have a verifiable emergency.  I do not give early exams to accommodate vacation schedules, so please make your holiday travel plans accordingly.  I reserve the right to refuse make-up requests.

Homework: Regular homework is expected and is a regular part of any math course. Your homework is due each day at the start of class. Homework must be stapled and should have your name, the couse and section number clearly visible. No late homework will be accepted.

Academic Honesty:
The work you do for this course will be your own, unless otherwise specified. You are not to submit other people's work and represent it as your own. I consider academic honesty to be at the core of the University's activities in education and research. Academic honesty is expected at all times in this course. Cheating is an attack on the efforts of myself and fellow students and, above all, on the cheater's integrity. Those caught cheating will be dealt with to the full extent allowed under University policy.

Cell Phone Policy: During class time, your cell phone is to be turned off and out of sight. Any use of a cell phone during class will result in confiscation of the phone until that day's class has ended or your removal from the class for that day. If you attempt to use your cell phone or leave it on during an exam, you will be considered to have finished your test, and I will collect your exam at that time.  Exceptions may be made only if you discuss your situation with me prior to the start of that day's class, in this case, your cell phone must be set to vibrate/silence.
